Magellan and his crew sailed to the nearby island of Limasawa, where they

many locals were converted to Christianity.

Rajah Humabon and his wife, Queen Hara Amihan, along with several

thousand Cebuanos, were baptized as Christians. This event marked a

significant step in the spread of Christianity in the Philippines.

A conflict arose between Magellan's forces and Lapu-Lapu, a local chieftain

on the nearby island of Mactan. Magellan led an ill-fated expedition to

subdue Lapu-Lapu, and he was killed in the Battle of Mactan.

May 1, 1521 After Magellan's death, the expedition's leadership passed to Juan

Sebastián Elcano. The remaining two ships, the Trinidad and the

Concepcion, left Cebu in an attempt to continue the voyage westward.
